Worst lawyer ever.

Charles had no issue taking the retainer for the divorce. He filed the paperwork then he disappeared. Could never reach him . He never told me that the divorce was finalized . When asked where the final paperwork was he said he sent it but the stamps must have fallen off. Avoid at all costs!!

Horrible

Haven’t seen my kids in over 4 years. Allowed my ex to forge my signature on my house. Never submitted transcripts to zero out my child support “arrears”. The most dishonest horrible person I have ever met. Truth will prevail and I know where he will be going on his judgment day. Him as a “honorable”... lawyer makes me sick. To know I have served this country as an honorable US Marine makes me sick to know I defended a country with people like him in

Divorce

Gave me misinformation which lead me to losing custody of my children. Once he realized I wasn’t able to pay him he did nothing to prepare me for trial and let my case go down with no fight. He never finished my divorce or the alimony. I ended up getting $0 after being married for 17 years due to his... negligence.

not capable to handle complicated matters

after repeated attempts at phone contact, I found it necessary to actually sit outside his office until he arrived in order to speak with him. Was not proactive, actually did nothing for me at all. As if he was uninterested which severely damaged my case.

Charles did a great job handling my case!

I've known Charles for over 20 years. He got me reduced from DWI to DWAI which resulted in a traffic infraction instead of a criminal record for me! I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again.
